Jacob Bellucci finally woke up, but perhaps because of the anesthetic, he was still in a daze and wanted to sleep.
Bai Jinyu said to wake Jacob Bellucci up every ten minutes until Jacob Bellucci was completely awake.
The news of Jacob Bellucci's injury was leaked to Yun Liuli from Bai Jinyu's wife, Xu Wanwan.
Hence, when Jacob Bellucci was fully awake, he saw Yun Liuli guarding by his bedside with reddened eyes.
Jacob Bellucci paused in surprise and turned his gaze … only to realize that Yun Liuli and Dr. Bai weren't the only ones in the ward. There was also Tang Zheng, who kept waking him up, as well as Fu Huai 'an and Lu Jinnan.
"Do you want to drink water?" Yun Liuli asked in a low voice.
Jacob Bellucci's lips were dry. He wanted to drink water, but he didn't look like he wanted to answer Yun Liuli.
Yun Liuli didn't care if Jacob Bellucci answered or not. Seeing him lick his lips, she poured a cup of warm water for him and carefully inserted a straw, bringing it to Jacob Bellucci's mouth.
Jacob Bellucci's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he couldn't resist the urge to drink water. He picked up the straw with difficulty and brought it to his mouth. Within two mouthfuls, he finished the cup of water.
"Do you still want to drink?" Yun Liuli asked again.
Jacob Bellucci had just nodded when he heard Bai Jinyu say, "Don't drink too much water first. It won't do you any good!"
Bai Jinyu then sat down by Jacob Bellucci's bedside and said to him, "This time, the one who killed you … is Old Gu's enemy!"
Jacob Bellucci frowned, as if he didn't understand why Gu Qingcheng's enemy was after his life.
"Ever since you stepped into Haicheng, Old Fu has been sending people to protect you in secret. The people he sent are the best in the bodyguard industry. The person who stabbed you today actually escaped unscathed from these top people. Hence, we deduced that … it could only be Gu Qingcheng's enemy to be able to hire such powerful people!"
Tang Zheng stood at the end of the bed with his arms crossed and added, "Perhaps you don't know what your older brother Gu Qingcheng does. I've already called Sheng Kang to come over. You should understand after Sheng Kang explains it to you later!"
"Sheng Kang told me before that Gu Qingcheng … is in the firearms business!" Jacob Bellucci said in a hoarse voice.
"Since you know, then you should know what kind of people Gu Qingcheng's enemies are. Desperados aren't even enough to describe them!" Lu Jinnan said.
Bai Jinyu nodded. "Now that you're in Haicheng, which is considered our territory, you've already been injured. Moreover, if you return to Venice, once those people come looking for you, you'll only have a dead end …"
At the mention of life and death, Jacob Bellucci would also be afraid. His fingers unconsciously curled up.
Seeing Jacob Bellucci's reaction, Bai Jinyu continued, "So what we mean is for you to stay in Haicheng for the time being. After a year or two … After Old Gu's matter dies down, you can go wherever you want!"
Jacob Bellucci remained silent, his eyelids lowered, as if he was considering it.
Yun Liuli, who was standing at the side, grew anxious when she saw that Jacob Bellucci wasn't reacting. She simply took off her jacket and rolled up her sleeves to show Jacob Bellucci the especially long scar on her upper arm …
"I'm not related to Gu Qingcheng by blood. Those people will even kill me if they go crazy. Moreover, you look almost identical to Gu Qingcheng, and you're his blood-related younger brother!" Yun Liuli lowered her sleeves and said, "Ever since I tied myself up with Gu Qingcheng, I've been kidnapped countless times, and I've succeeded twice! Both times … I nearly died in someone else's hands! "
Jacob Bellucci looked at Yun Liuli, slightly stunned.
"The first time, I nearly fainted from being strangled. It was Gu Qingcheng who arrived in time to save me. The second time … it was Sister Xiao Nuan who saved me! Do you know how Sister Xiao Nuan saved me? Because that lunatic was obsessed with Sister Xiao Nuan, and he only let me go when Sister Xiao Nuan agreed to meet him! "Yun Liuli's eyes reddened as she spoke.
She moved closer to Jacob Bellucci, propping her hands by his side. "Do you know who that lunatic is? America … the head of the De Niro family! Tell me … for someone like him to want your life, wouldn't it be a piece of cake? "
This time around, Jacob Bellucci seemed to be really frightened. His lips were pale, looking even paler than earlier, when he had lost too much blood.
Yun Liuli's eyes were extremely red. "So … you'll only be able to keep your life if you stay in Haicheng! Unless you say that you're not afraid of death and insist on returning to Venice, then … I'll persuade Gu Qingcheng's good friends, Fu Huai 'an, Lu Jinnan, Tang Zheng, and Bai Jinyu, not to stop you! "
Jacob Bellucci's thin lips were pursed.
"I'll … go overseas with you. If we die, we'll die together!" Yun Liuli enunciated each word clearly.
Jacob Bellucci's pupils quivered slightly.
Tang Zheng stole a glance at Yun Liuli. Didn't the young lady know that Jacob Bellucci was Gu Qingcheng? Her acting … was so realistic!
The ward door was pushed open, and Sheng Kang entered, panting and sweating profusely.
Seeing that Jacob Bellucci had woken up, Sheng Kang let out a long exhale. He closed the door and greeted Fu Huai 'an and the rest. "Mr. Fu, Mr. Lu, Mr. Tang … Dr. Bai! Miss Liuli! "
"Sheng Kang, tell Jacob Bellucci. The person who stabbed him today escaped unscathed from the six top-notch bodyguards Old Fu sent to protect him. Could he be an ordinary person?" Tang Zheng said to Sheng Kang.
Before coming, Sheng Kang had already analyzed the cause and effect of this matter. He nodded and walked to Jacob Bellucci, saying, "Mr. Jacob Bellucci, I think … it's best that you don't leave Haicheng for the time being. At least Mr. Fu and the rest will protect you in Haicheng. Once you return to Venice, without anyone to protect you, those people will be even more fearless. I'm afraid you …"
At this point, Sheng Kang paused and said, "I'm afraid that this kind of thing will never end!"
Jacob Bellucci was a normal person. Although he was introverted due to his unfortunate experiences when he was young, he wasn't the kind of person who was fearless of everything and could face death with equanimity. He was also afraid of death!
Hence, no matter how much Jacob Bellucci disliked Gu Qingcheng's group of friends, for the sake of his own safety, based on Jacob Bellucci's personality, he would choose to stay and let Fu Huai 'an and the rest protect him.
After a long while, Jacob Bellucci nodded. "Okay … I'll stay!"
Tang Zheng and the rest heaved sighs of relief.
"It's just that …" Jacob Bellucci spoke in a hoarse voice. "My visa is a short-term visa."
Jacopo Bellucci is Italian.
